Rapido HO 26ft Can-Car Trailer, Unlettered

Rapido Item #: 403121

Rapido Trains Inc. is proud to offer not one, but two styles of Canadian piggyback trailers! A first for the industry!

The two trailers are the 260 Can-Car Industries Dry-Vans with and without side doors, and the 450 Trailmobile design trailers, also with and without side doors. The 260 trailers were widely used by Canadian National and Canadian Pacific for package delivery services, as well as trucking services and retail store owners. Thes unique trailers have the iconic ribbed sides with catchy graphics. Eventually they were phased out of service in the 1980s.

The 450 Trailmobile trailers arrived in Canada in the mid-1970s, almost a full decade before they launched in the US. These venerable trailers also had the option for side doors, for easier access. Much like the 260 trailers, CN and CP both had good quantities as well as small and large trucking services. Many wore a variety of colourful schemes, so crank up that memory machine and grab a few of these neat trailers today!

The Canadian Piggyback Trailer features:

Landing gear has two separate pieces to create in-motion or parked positions

Separately-applied mud flaps

Highly detailed wheel and axle area

260 trailers have two styles of front stabilizing bars to create in-motion or parked positions
